Angie dela Cruz - Pilipino Star Ngayon

MANILA, Philippines — Hiniling ni DENR Secretary Roy A. Cimatu sa lahat ng stakeholders  ng Boracay na tumulong at makiisa sa ahensiya na mapanumbalik ang ganda ng isla.

Ayon kay Cimatu, mala­king tulong ang magagawa ng mga stakeholders na mapabilis ang rehabilitasyon sa isla.

“For that to happen we will need ‘all hands on deck’ - go­vernment employees, business owners, workers, residents, and of course, the tourists - local and foreign, who have made Boracay a byword in the tourism world.”pahayag ni Cimatu na siyang chairman ng  inter-agency Task Force Boracay.

Sinabi ni Cimatu na ang rehabilitation efforts ng DENR sa Boracay sa loob ng anim na buwang pagkakasara sa isla ay nakasentro sa  drainage at sewerage rehabilitation; solid waste management; forestlands at easement recovery, alienable at disposable land management; road at transport  kasama na ang air qua­lity management, biodiversity conservation, wetlands rehabilitation, at geological hazard management.

“We intend to review the road and transport network, including the use of the jetty ports, motor vehicles and other means of transport to make these conform to the most desirable means to transport people and goods within a small 1,078-hectare island,” dagdag ni Cimatu.

Bubusiin din ng  DENR Boracay Master Plan para makagawa ng mas kumprehensibong Northern Aklan Master Plan na higit na magpapausbong ng turismo sa  Boracay  at mga kalapit lugar tulad sa Malay, Caticlan, Carabao Island, at sa buong lalawigan ng  Aklan.

Noong April 26 pormal na naipasara ang Boracay Island para sa mga turista upang malinis ang napabayaang katubigan at kapaligiran ng isla.
